One more bolt, should I ride???

[mademan9]

I have my 701 62t all put together in my sq nose, but im missing one exhaust bolt. Should I ride with only 7? The eight bolt is coming in next week, but i was looking to test ride this weekend. Do you guys think it would be ok with just those 7?

You know you can go to lowes and buy one dont you? Believe it is an M8 approx 1" - 1 1/2" long

Not this one. Its a 4'' long 10 mm fine thread bolt.

What pipe? May have one, I could put it in the mail tomorrow, you would get it monday.

I have a old school protec. Its a chrome with black mani. I have a bolt but it was for my 650. its to small. my 701 needs a 10mm with 1.2 fine threads. about 4 to 4.5 long

You'll find a much bigger selection of non-stainless bolts locally, so you may find what you want in regular steal. Who cares if that means it'll rust in a few months when you have a replacement coming in a few days? It'll get you on the water.

That's what I'm going to do. Thanks for the quick thinking!
